Donald Trump claims a former Breitbart
reporter made unwanted physical contact with him before his campaign
manager allegedly grabbed the reporter’s arm – and a member of
Trump’s Secret Service detail is backing up the GOP front-runner’s
story.

As WND reported,
Trump’s campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, 41, is accused of
accosting Fields at the March 8 rally after she purportedly touched
Trump’s arm. Lewandowski was formally charged with misdemeanor battery
Tuesday. Fields filed a police report three days after the incident in
Jupiter, Florida, and claimed the encounter left bruises on her arm.

Is it for the government to interpret the Constitution, or is it for We, the People,
to interpret that document, which, as is so clearly stated in the
preamble, approved by us, through conventions of representatives in all
thirteen then independent states under the Articles of Confederation?

There can be little doubt that Congress, the Executive, and the
Judicial, must, in many instances, determine the intent of the
Constitution. The same was true under British rule. However, when the
government interpretation reaches the point of a gross deviation from
intent, we cannot leave it to the government for that interpretation.
For, to do so allows the government to bypass the Amendment Process
described in Article 5, and simply pass whatever laws they want. When
that happens, the Constitution is no longer in effect, and we are
subjected to nothing less than a despotic government, failing to be
government created by the Constitution, rather acting as an oligarchy,
with no regard to the limitations imposed upon them by the Constitution.

So, in a larger sense, it must evolve to us, when the government so
grossly misapplies those powers and authorities granted to it by the
Constitution, to take, again, the reins of government, and to force
those who claim to represent us back into their limited authority, by
whatever means necessary.

The events in Harney County, Oregon, have brought a rather
interesting light upon the actions of government. So, we will begin by
comparing some of their actions to historically recognized abuses, and
then the remedies evolving out of those prior violations of our natural
rights.

According to the Kuwaiti daily Al Qabas, Saudi Prince
al-Waleed bin Talal said on Tuesday that he would support Israel in an
intifada and that Saudi Arabia must reconsider its regional commitments
and devise a new strategy to combat Iran's increasing influence in the
Gulf by forging a defense pact with the Jewish state.

"I will side with the Jewish nation and its democratic aspirations in
case of outbreak of a Palestinian intifada and I shall exert all my
influence to break any ominous Arab initiatives set to condemn Tel Aviv,
because I deem the Arab-Israeli entente and future friendship necessary
to impede the dangerous Iranian encroachment," Kuwaiti News Agency (KUNA) quoted Prince al-Waleed as saying.

On the day I was scheduled to speak at USC this week, a column
appeared in the Daily Trojan, titled “David Horowitz Does Not Belong On
Campus.” The author, an Iranian student named Lida Dianti, justified her
desire to ban me from speaking by claiming that I was a racist and
anti-Muslim, and that I “vilified Palestinians.”

In fact, I
have been a lifelong defender of minorities and particularly African
Americans, having been in my first civil rights march 68 years ago,
during the Truman administration, almost half a century before Lida
Dianti was born. Dianti justifies her claim that I am an anti-black
racist with these words:
“He has refuted the prevalence of
institutionalized racism,” and “[dismissed] the systems that actively
oppress black Americans.”

Well, if I’ve “refuted” the claim that there
is institutional racism then what is the complaint?

Apparently, the
complaint is that the truth is racist. This actually captures my view of
the protests against conservative speakers on this and other campuses:
The protesters can’t handle the truth.

I am "not isolationist, but I am 'America First,'" Donald Trump told The New York times last weekend. "I like the expression."

Of NATO, where the U.S. underwrites three-fourths of the cost of
defending Europe, Trump calls this arrangement "unfair, economically, to
us," and adds, "We will not be ripped off anymore."

Beltway media may be transfixed with Twitter wars over wives and alleged
infidelities. But the ideas Trump aired should ignite a national debate
over U.S. overseas commitments -- especially NATO.

For the Donald's ideas are not lacking for authoritative support.

The first NATO supreme commander, Gen. Eisenhower, said in February 1951
of the alliance: "If in 10 years, all American troops stationed in
Europe for national defense purposes have not been returned to the
United States, then this whole project will have failed."

If there is one thing that is bipartisan in Washington, it is brazen hypocrisy.

Currently there is much indignation being expressed by Democrats because
the Republican-controlled Senate refuses to hold confirmation hearings
on President Obama's nominee to the Supreme Court, to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia.

The Democrats complain, and the media echo their complaint, that it is
the Senate's duty to provide "advice and consent" on the President's
appointment of various federal officials. Therefore, according to this
claim, the Senate is neglecting its Constitutional duty by refusing even
to hold hearings to determine whether the nominee is qualified, and
then vote accordingly.

First of all, the "advice and consent" provision of the Constitution is a
restriction on the President's power, not an imposition of a duty on
the Senate. It says nothing about the Senate's having a duty to hold
hearings, or vote, on any Presidential nominee, whether for the Supreme
Court or for any other federal institution. The power to consent is the
power to refuse to consent, and for many years no hearings were held,
whether the Senate consented or did not consent.

On Monday, religious liberty took another hit when Georgia Republican
Governor Nathan Deal vetoed a bill passed by the state legislature
earlier this month. We have long warned that the path to same-sex
marriage was a slippery slope because the Rainbow Mafia won’t stop their
bullying until they get total acceptance of their way. And it’s made
worse when proper protections can’t be put in place.

Deal apparently caved to the pressure of big business and chose to
side with economic interests over Liberty and common sense. For a
governor who has a reasonably conservative track record, this compromise
on the principles of Liberty comes as a double blow. But it also
demonstrates how the homosexual lobby along with big businesses that
support that agenda won’t even tolerate the mildest form of protection
for those who cherish religious freedom.

As the Heritage Foundation’s Ryan Anderson notes,
“The Georgia religious freedom bill that Deal vetoed would have
safeguarded clergy from having to officiate same-sex weddings, prevented
faith-based organizations from being forced to hire someone who
publicly undermines their mission, and prohibited the state government
from discriminating against churches and their affiliated ministries
because they believe marriage is between a man and a woman.”

Today Trump’s campaign manager Corey Lewandowski was charged with
battery for touching Michelle Fields arm during a media scrum. At the
time Fields was moving towards Trump, who was surrounded by Secret
Service agents and trying to leave.

Unless you have been hiding under a rock for the last couple of days, you are aware that the National Enquirerpublished a story alleging that Republican Presidential candidate Ted Cruz has at least five mistresses. #CruzSexScandal
and some other more clever hashtags have been trending like mad on
Twitter since then, despite efforts by Twitter to suppress it. (It
falling off the trending list, it not autofilling, etc.)

Watching the reaction of Cruz supporters brought someone to mind. Do
Cruz supporters not remember Lanny Davis? For those not old enough to
remember poor Lanny, he was the primary Clinton spokesman during the
time of the Monica Lewinski scandal. Lanny appeared repeatedly on news
programs denying and denouncing the allegation against President
Clinton. “The allegations are outrageous. Blah, blah… There is no blue
stained dress. Blah, blah… It’s all a vast right-wing conspiracy to
smear the President. Blah, blah…” The
only problem was that there was a blue stained dress. May I suggest that
caution is in order? You don’t want to be like Lanny.

8:28 PM EDT Sunday, 27 March -- A heavily armed group of men with
Middle Eastern appearance was arrested two hours ago outside Los Angeles
after opening fire upon Hikers and Campers in a large State Park in the
area.

Photos taken by one of the victims of the attack have been supplied
to SuperStation95 as have screen shots of MMS messages sent/received
during the incident. They appear below.

No word yet from authorities about the identities or affiliation of
the men arrested. The Adelanto, CA Police Department effectuated the
arrests.

According to the victim/witness, there were two groups of men, about
15 per group, armed with heavy weapons, who began shouting "Allah u
Akbar" and started firing. The firing allegedly lasted upwards of TWO HOURS before police were able to find callers in the vast California parkland.

When police were responding, one group of 15 or so men took-off into the hills, while the other group was captured by police.

I
made this bow and arrow using only primitive tools and materials.The
bow is 1.25 m (55 inches) long and shoots 60 cm (2 feet) long arrows. I
don't know the draw weight - safe to say greater than 15 kg (35 pounds)
perhaps? The stave was made from a tree that was cut with a stone axe
and split in half with a stone chisel. I don't know it's name but it's
common here and is the same wood I use for axe handles (probably
Northern Olive (Chionanthus ramiflora). One half was used for the bow
and was cut to a length of 1.25 m (50 inches). The limbs of the bow were
carved with various stone blades so that the limbs tapered in width,
and to a lesser extent depth, towards the tips. The middle of the bow
was narrowed in width to form a handle about 12.5 cm (5 inches) long.

The
string was made from the inner bark of a fibrous tree. It was separated
into thin strips and left to dry. Then it was twisted into cordage.

Arrows
were made of the same wood as the bow and were 60 cm (2 feet) long. A
notch was carved into the back to accept the bow string. They were
fletched with bush turkey feathers picked up from the ground (no turkeys
were harmed in the making of this video). A feather was split in half
and cut into 3 lengths then resin and bark fiber attached the fletching
on to the arrows. The tip of the arrow was fire hardened and sharpened
to a point. The fletching was trimmed using a hot coal. Each arrow took
about an hour to make. A quiver was made of bark to hold the arrows.

I
cleared a shooting range with a semi rotten log as a target. At 10
meters the accuracy was better than 50 % for this narrow target and the
arrows stuck into the wood enough so that they were difficult to pull
out. The bow was durable, shooting about 200-300 times with the string
breaking only 3 times. I made a back up string and repaired them by
splicing the ends back together.

In conclusion this was an easy bow
to make. The short design makes it easy to find a straight piece of wood
for the stave. A short string is also easy to make and short arrow
shafts are easy to find. Short bows shoot fast and are easy to carry in
thick forest. The dimensions of the bow were based on those given in the
SAS Survival Handbook by john Lofty Wiseman. but instead of carving it
from a stave from the start, I split the stave and then carved it. I
think this requires less time, effort and skill. It also gives a flat
bow design that's unlikely to break. It does require wood that doesn't
twist much when split though.

We are currently in the process of losing our freedoms and effective
control over our societies. It is sheer madness to continue Muslim
immigration in a situation when militant Muslims are actively waging war
against us in our own cities. Western political leaders who promote
such policies are guilty of criminal negligence at best. They must be
removed from power, and replaced by people who protect the long-term
interests of our nations.

*******************************

On the morning of March 22, 2016, Belgium was struck by coordinated nail
bombings. Two hit Brussels Airport at the check-in counter, before the
security screening. Another suicide bomber hit Maalbeek metro station,
located not far from prominent EU buildings. The attacks occurred a few
days before the Christian Easter celebrations. The Islamic State of Iraq
and Syria (IS or ISIS) claimed responsibility for the attacks. At least
35 people were killed, and many seriously injured. The Muslim
terrorists have connections to militant Muslims in many parts of Europe and the Middle East.[1]
The authorities faced difficulties in apprehending some of the
terrorists partly because they enjoy widespread sympathy and support in
certain Muslim communities.

Brussels is not merely the capital of Belgium. It is also the capital
of the European Union (EU), and houses the headquarters of the Western
defense alliance NATO. It is therefore a symbolic target. The city
contains a large Muslim immigrant population. In notorious urban
districts such as Molenbeek, radical Muslims have ties to international
Jihadist networks. Belgium has produced more Jihadists as a proportion
of its population than any other Western European country. On May 24,
2014, a gunman killed four people at the Jewish Museum of Belgium in
Brussels.

Following the Brussels bombings, the US State Department warned US
citizens of the “potential risks” of traveling to Europe. A statement
said terror groups were planning “attacks throughout Europe, targeting sporting events, tourist sites, restaurants and transportation.”[2]

Europe is now becoming more like Israel, facing constant Islamic terror threats in daily life.

I am praying
for you all and would truly appreciate your prayers as next steps in
pursuing religious life. I visited the Order of the Two Hearts in
Hopedale, OH and spoke with Sr. Teresa over the phone this morning. She
hopes a private association could open here in California and I'm
making an appointment to see my spiritual director, Fr. Thomas, first
thing tomorrow
morning about how I can better serve our Lord. Please also pray for
Robert, the leader for the St. Paul Street Evangelization SF chapter,
whom I've had the honor to meet and pray with. Hopefully, I will be out
in SF more often passing out rosaries, miraculous medals as well as
praying for those who need prayers. In addition, I'm also a member of
the Pro Life San Mateo group and have prayed in front of Planned
Parenthood clinics for an end to abortion and the sanctity of human
life. Please pray for the leader of the group, Jessica.

If
anyone would like to join me with the Pro Life group or Street
Evangelization, please let me know and also, I'd like to plan a "Bike
for Life" event from Our Lady of Peace in Santa Clara to St. Patrick's
in SF to bring about more awareness of being Pro-Life. May God be
praised!

ENOUGH,
for one week at least, about the strange victories of Donald Trump.
Let’s talk about the mysteries of his last real competitor, Ted Cruz.

On
the surface, Cruz is a straightforward figure: The ideological zealot,
the politician-as-activist, the unbending embodiment of True
Conservatism. He’s the scourge of Obamacare, the bane of the G.O.P.
establishment, the evangelical moralist with a flat-tax plan and a
Reagan quote for every occasion. If Trump has dynamited Republican
orthodoxy and tapped out nasty tweets from the rubble, Cruz has kept
pace by promising to rebuild that same orthodoxy stronger than before.

Winners: Navy Cross Nguyen Van Kiet & MOH Thomas R. Norris This week’s Medal of Honor hero is one of a handful of Navy SEALs awarded the MOH in the Vietnam War. Norris snuck behind enemy lines with a South Vietnamese Navy petty officer rescued two downed pilots in 1972–when most of our resources had been pulled from the country. Interesting to note that later year, Norris was himself rescued by another SEAL Michael E. Thornton.More @ Medal of Honor Roll Call

My great grandfather and great uncle knew all the men in the "Civil War Requiem" video as they were part of the 53rd NC which was the sole unit defending Fort Mahone. (Fort Mahone was named "Fort Damnation" by the Yankees) *Handpicked men of the 53rd (My great grandfather was one of these) made the final, night assault at Petersburg in an attempt to break Grant's line. This was against Fort Stedman which was a few miles to the slight northeast. They initially succeeded, but reinforcements drove them back. This video is made from photographs which were taken the day after the 53rd evacuated the lines the night before to begin the retreat to Appomattox. I have many more pictures taken by the same photographer, one of these shows a 14 year old boy and the other is the famous picture of the blond, handsome soldier with his musket.
===========================
*General Gordon promised the men a gold medal and 30 days leave if they accomplished their task and many years after the War my great grandfather wrote General Gordon, who was then governor of Georgia about this incident. They exchanged several letters which I have framed. See first link below.
